Read a five-star review from an Amazon Reviewer:
“Great Motivational Read!
What can I say about "Retirement Is Fun?"
It's a book that gives the good and the bad of living in this 21st century.
There are incredible miracles and incredible heartbreaks, yet through it all with the support of family and faith in God, we prevail.
The author wrote the story as it occurred, with no frills or embellishments.
She takes the reader along with her to the many places she visited.
Her obvious enjoyment of them is a testament to her wonderful spirit.
The book is written in two parts.
I was happy the author gives us the good news in the first half, that way, the reader can see her strength and appreciate from whence she came.
I was impressed with the places she had visited.
I'd thought I was a world traveler, but I take my hat off to her and her wonderful family.
This is a great motivational and inspirational story for anyone who needs uplifting.”

Review
Such an enjoyable read!
Retirement Is Fun" is an enjoyable account of lifeafter retirement, written by an amazing author, Brenda Mohammed.
Ms. Mohammed recounts in greatdetail her decision to embark on a totally new career, with its ensuing challengesand rewards, after retiring from a successful career in banking.
"Why not?" was her mentalapproach as she entered the world of insurance, quickly rising to the top ofthe profession as she continually worked tirelessly to increase her skills andabilities.
"Retirement Is Fun" is notonly a testament to her success, but to her absolute enjoyment of life andeverything it has to offer.
Ms. Mohammed writes about herprofessional successes, but also of her personal life. The reader gets toknow her extended family as they are such an integral part of her life.
She enjoys her family, travels oftenand extensively throughout the world, revels in her grandchildren and is amarvelous example of how much one can achieve in life.
A Reviewer
From the Author
"We all face challenges. I have found that 'what doesn't kill you will make you stronger' to be true. I have recently met an inspirational writer Brenda Mohammed and in her book 'Retirement is Fun: A New Chapter' (Amazon) she reveals her triumph over hazardous challenges. Her positive outlook and faith carry her through the difficult phase between her high profile job in a bank and retirement, but it is in these halcyon days of retirement, that life really throws her a curved ball. No matter what you are going through, make it count and enable growth. You are not alone.
